Melody had convinced her mom to let her take her horse Moon down to the stables today so that she could practice on her. She hadn't actually rode Moon in a while and Moon needed some grooming anyway so she figured she could do the grooming after she was done riding and get it done while she had the time. She had just gotten done with her riding and was bringing Moon back into the stables so she could start the grooming. "Good girl. Good." She persuaded Moon to stay still with a carrot. It always worked and it probably always would, Moon just loved carrots. They were her favorite.

Maddie was standing in the stables with a small yearling, stroking it's light palomino neck. It was a smaller colt, very docile. It had a leather halter on that said '3C Chasin That Playgirl'. His dam's name was 3C Playgirl, and his sire's name was Chasin Firewater... so they thought it'd be appropriate. She began to lead him, and he walked calmly beside her. She wanted him to get out since he'd be her best barrel prospect from the mares she bred. He was fortunatly a very calm horse, even though he was young. She smiled as she stopped him once more, stroking his muzzle.

Melody was almost into the stables when she noticed Maddie with a smaller horse, very young. She smiled and stopped saying hi as she stroked Moon's mane, it was a deep black color and it wasn't very clean. That was why she wanted to clean it so badly. There was dirt and debri from the trees all stuck through it. She looked up at Maddie as she picked a few leaves out of Moon's mane.

She looked over at the girl, a new smile coming to her lips "hey," she said softly. She looked over her horse, giving her an approving nod "awww, she's so cute" she said referring to Moon. She looked down at the colt who pricked his ears over to the larger horse. He tilted his head, and Maddie giggled. She still hadn't thought of a good barn name for him yet, maybe Chase. He wasn't very clean either, he had a winter coat and his legs had spots of mud on them where it was so cacked on there that Maddie couldn't get it all off in time. It would've taken her hours to fully groom the poor thing.

Melody laughed at the little colt who was jumping around some. "Thanks, your is too." She had a smiled on her face. The poor colt still had a little bit of mud on her legs but she knew how hard it was sometimes to get mud off when it had been there long enough to sink in deeply. No one, not even horse lovers like them wanted to spend hours getting mud off of there horses legs when they could be training or doing something better. "Have you given him a name yet?" She loved helping people name there new colts, it was really fun to do actually.

Maddie smiled "thanks," she said sweetly and looked down at the colt. He looked up to her, then nuzzled her playfully. She shrugged at Melody's last question "well, not really" she admitted "I was thinking about calling him Chase, since his registered name is 3C Chasin That Playgirl" she explained, patting his neck. He turned his butt around, trying to look behind him. He was getting a little more hyper now. She pulled him back around, keeping him beside her. He took a deep breath, hanging his head trying to get her to feel sorry for him.

Melody couldn't help but laugh at the way the colt acted, she hadn't seen a colt since Moon was a colt since Moon was the youngest horse on there farm at home. "Chase would be a cool name" He looked like he wanted to chase something right now and she laughed at her own thoughts, she always thought funny things for some reason. She would never say them out loud though.

She smirked slightly "yeah, I think thats what I'll call you" she said as she looked down at him. He snorted, bobbing his head like he liked it. "Awww, Chase" she said. Chase just looked over twords Melody then back to Maddie, then to Moon. He nickered to her, snorted and pawing the tround. Maddie pushed her hip into him, and he stopped with a sigh. "The young ones are so restless," she said as she shook her head at him then looked at Melody. "So do you keep her here or did you just bring her to let her look around?" she asked curiously.

She realized that Maddie was talking about Moon. "Oh, well I don't usually bring her I just thought that I would today so I could give her a grooming after I was done riding her for a little bit." She had started unharnessing Moon in order to start the grooming process and knew she would be here for at least a couple hours more in order to get it properly done, she hadn't groomed Moon in about two weeks so it was probably pretty bad.
